The @IUPAB1-ABA (Asian Biophysical Assoc. asian-bp.org) meeting iupab-aba2025.com at @USMOfficial1969 Kuala Lumpur campus showcased #biophysics research in the region, including that of Prof. Kumiko @Hayashi_ISSP, with whom I served on @BiophysicalSoc Council.

Great to catch up with Dr Rehana Sidat at @iupac2025 and @IUPAC president @KeinanEhud pictured here at the #iupac2025 gala dinner

A lovely bonus following @iupac2025 is that I had a few hours at @ChangiAirport and was able to catch up with Dr Crystal Lau, who completed her PhD in #chemistry with me at The @UniMelb in 2006. Enjoyed seeing the indoor waterfall at Jewel Changi Airport

Be part of an exciting afternoon on 25 July at @Bio21Institute as innovative minds from @BurnetInstitute, @PeterMacCC, Baker Heart & Diabetes Institute, @latrobe, @MonashUni, and @UniMelb present bold research ideas at @Falling_Walls Lab Melbourne. events.unimelb.edu.au/chemistry/even…

Enjoy this 2025 TEDx talk by Colleen Kelley, which highlights her vision for Molecular Literacy and Kids’ Chemical Solutions. Great ideas that could have an enormous impact on how we can make #chemistry and science education accessible to all. youtu.be/OwQfs0pIO-I
